(Everybody Throws You Away) Louise Lyrics

Everybody Throws You Away) Louise

Grass is turning brown

Cold hard hail's a-comin' down

And I'm leaning heavy south

In a northbound wind

With the dark November skies

And the dark bags hung beneath your eyes

No telling exactly where you've been



And it's a shame, it's a shame, it's a goddamned shame

Everybody throws you 'way Louise

It's a shame, it's a shame, it's a goddamned shame

Everybody throws you 'way Louise



Oh Louise, you pretty thing

The Blue tick bays

And the crickets sing

Every time the moon is up above

You can lead a horse to water

You can even raise that horse's daughter

But you can't force a selfish man to love



Oh, hungry eyed Louise

You've a tender heart

That no one sees

Like a baby bird

You hide it for your own

Would you show it to me now?

I'll try to pay you back some how

By seeing that you never sit alone
